It is a very complete list. I had never seen the ones from http://homepage.mac.com/s_lott/books/index.html before though. @Adam: Nice find there. I like that the book walks you through full examples of code. @Ubuntu_Demon: I have seen the list on your site before. It is a very complete list.

It does not only teach how to program in Python, but also how to really make use of Python features through several mini-problems.
